exaggeration as explanation

Blue Clouds at Evening - digital painting - Dan Beck 2007

I haven’t made art prints available for this yet - of course, with a brand new piece, I can’t tell if anyone will groove on it like I do. Plus I have yet to get a good print - my first attempt had some unwanted printer lines in it.

I actually saw this! I’ve exaggerated some - to create the drama that was really in the evening - sharpening the sky’s color and making the clouds more dimensional and clear blue.

But that is what makes art - it is about conveying what one sees - what one understands - with the confines and enhancements of the medium one uses.

So having said that, I think it is a fun digital painting.
